folk puppetry & storytelling

Menu

It’s been a while since I’ve done any theatre making on this scale, and I’ve loved getting stuck into making, set building, back cloth painting… I’ve been knitting a tiny woollen jumper (after a new character joined the story); adding gold leaf to a beautiful old model ship, and searching for the best way to animate the ship on the high seas (think rolling pin and a plank of wood!!).

And the story itself has taken a while to come to the fore and has now emerged from the depths!! Thank heavens for that!!!

I’ll be updating you with small snippets as we get nearer to the first showing of “The Mermaid’s Tale”…
